Boli Bolingoli And Celtic Breaching COVID Rules - Sturgeon “Celtic and Aberdeen not expected to play for at least next week”

[Chris-to-pher]

That would just be too funny.
Imagine the timplosion?

Just said on sky UEFA have a decision to make. Imagine this oooooft

 

[insanicdrunk]

It's strange, the statement doesn't say that the games being cancelled are for health reasons, so looks like this is the punishment.

There is no timescale, so that will leave it up to UEFA for their CL game.

 

[Chester Loyal]

Sensible decision made all round (can’t believe I just said that).

Huge opportunity for us to pile the pressure on them with 3 more wins before they play again.

Celtic should still be investigated for potentially fielding an illegible player v Killie though.

 

[insanicdrunk]

Grigo, I'm pretty sure Reykjavik will be sniffing about like a drug dug as we speak

Legia warsaw will be seeing if anyone can do an Icelandic accent!

 

[CooperOnTheWing]

The Kilmarnock game should be a 3-0 loss. Lenient in that they would only lose another point. They must have come up with a rule for this at the SPFL - at least in the case of a breach by Rangers.

 

[Sam English]

Surely a punishment for bringing the game into disrepute

That would only come into play if it was us. A rule book would suddenly appear.

 

[Beanyrfc79]

Hmm this post was posted on Sunday yet they didn't find out about it till yest! Then lennon was on the phone to snp health guy last and never told him. Oooft

 

[julescotia]

Maybe if the Icelandic team get an article in a Swiss paper, printed in French about this Scottish/Irish teams Belgian player going to Spain ..... maybe that will get UEFA's attention.

 

[ArfieldGer]

The ScotGov and SFA/SPFL are making this up as they go along.

 

[Katic's gonna get ye]

People need to stop falling into the trap of "useless Lennon" its exactly what he plays up to. In actual fact he realised they toiled in December and against us, went away and drilled the team into a new formation and came back and won the league, to this day I've still no clue what the hell we done when we were away

Won it?

They will get away Scot free. Despite ignorance of not knowing where their player was and him not saying where he was, they should get destroyed with a points deduction as it’s their responsibility to know and bolingooleys to say.

They will squirm out of it if a case even gets brought against them which I doubt.

 

[MDM]

As an aside to all this, surely to fūck Doncaster's position must be up for serious consideration now. This is his shitshow. He's in charge. Two weeks in and it's a fucking shambles already.

It's time he fell on his sword (instead of swallowing Peter's pork sword).

The game doesn't have a sponsor and no wonder - who'd be daft enough to give Doncaster their money? He'd end up dishing it out to some Nigerian prince on the promise of squillions back as a thank you......

given the tight domestic schedule, there is no way they are cancelled as a punishment
its health reasons pure and simple

 

[GovanFront4]

Would be karma from cheating Sion and getting Legia papped out.

 

[HMS.Temple.Garden]

given the tight domestic schedule, there is no way they are cancelled as a punishment

UEFA stated the host team needs to find a alternative venue in a neutral country

 

[Bri RTID]

Went to a bar which is against the agreed protocols.

I must of missed this however, but if there is agreed rules then they should of known better

 

[insanicdrunk]

It doesnt say that anywhere though. If it is health reasons it would be 14 days, not just two games.

 

[Bluethruandthru]

Would be prudent if they were made fully aware of the facts on the issue.

 

[ChildOfGoth]

Aberdeen were cancelled by Scottish government , what is the statement on that and how does today’s compare ?
It must be at least 14 days Isolation for each club , that is the policy statement to protect public health .
That is what Aberdeen are being held to .

 

[Katic's gonna get ye]

It doesnt say that anywhere though. If it is health reasons it would be 14 days, not just two games.

Because by the time the 2 games are postponed it will be 2 weeks by the time the player returned. I think.

Although it looks like this guy is actually one of us. Confused tweets all over his timeline

I certainly know that nae neck, Bain and another we're out in a pub last week. My nephew clocked them plying 18 year old girls with drink they didn't ask for. Clearly they have an issue with taking this seriously.

 

[Avengers]

Our players better behave themselves as the scum will be watching and all over it. They will be out stalking our players to even up the score.

 

[Gibraltar Loyal]

In actual fact he realised they toiled in December and against us, went away and drilled the team into a new formation and came back and won the league, to this day I've still no clue what the hell we done when we were away

Thankfully no winter break this season.

 

[warfieldranger]

The SFA fined us £160,000 for getting into financial difficulties in 2012 - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/18873231

That included a fine of £100,000 for 'bringing the game into disrepute', surely these latest incidents fall into that category. The SPFL should also fine them and deduct points.

 

[AbronhillBear]

Bolingoli will need 24 hour security to protect him from his own fans

They will try and sack him or sell him

Probably to buy Hickey

Hickey has been absoloute dug meat every time Ive seen him

 

[Lanarkshire]

That's what happened to Hearts for fielding inelible player in league cup i think.

Boli was to self isolate at the weekend so means he was ineligible.

Further 2 point deduction and 10k fine surely?

Need to see what the rule book says so they an amend it to suit.

 

[Eighteen Seventy Two]

LASK were deducted six points in Austria. It’s a 0-3 forfeit against Killie at a minimum.

 

[nelster]

Correct

And we are stupid for celebrating postponements as a win

 

[Mjolnir]

I just saw Lennon's performance on SSN.
Apart from the Boliboliboli amusement, it looked like he had Steve McLaren type balding pattern and a funny wee hair island sitting in a gap of baldness.

Sorry, I thought it was funny. Ok, back on the thread

 

[Empire]

The points should be awarded to Hamilton and St Mirren. Both teams in a position to play the game. Aberdeen and Celtic aren’t. Surely legally that’s a forfeit?

 

[Fernando26]

Surely he’s classed as an ineligible player?

Kilmarnock should be awarded the points.

 

[Sticky Fingers]

This should be correct. It’s government guidelines to self isolate if returning from a quarantined country, and that’s what they guy didn’t do. So the reality is he should have been deemed ineligible as per government guidelines. It’s practically the law for %^*& sake, it’s not even a kid on thing. Wonder how the mentally challenged scum will play that one?
We know how this will play out anyway, the games being postponed will be deemed punishment enough since it’s the holyrood CSC dealing with it.

 

[Caesar]

2020/21 League season cancelled & final positions arranged on a points per team wish list by Liewell probably.

A fine, suspended points deduction & all clubs warned about future conduct would be my guess

 

[Chester Loyal]

They will get away Scot free. Despite ignorance of not knowing where their player was and him not saying where he was, they should get destroyed with a points deduction as it’s their responsibility to know and bolingooleys to say.

They will squirm out of it if a case even gets brought against them which I doubt.

I don’t believe for a second that Celtic didn’t know where he was.

If he was awol from training for 4 days and they didn’t know why then there’s no chance he’d be in the squad for the weeekends game.

I’m also pretty sure that the clubs normally hold onto players passports during the season.

 

[HamiltonBear]

Hickey has been absoloute dug meat every time Ive seen him

Like for like replacement then.

 

[insanicdrunk]

I dont think this will be the case, but it would be up to Killie to ask the question,which they wont.

 

[sir_stan]

Surprising that Bolingoli has not been found to be a separate entity and nothing to do with Celtic.

 

[Smkz23]

My understanding of the rules is that he wasn’t ineligible in footballing terms, he shouldn’t have played based on the govt guidelines but the rules themselves don’t cover something like this.

 

[Drumchapel-Bear]

Will the bheasts be allowed to train during their isolation period as well? Would imagine they should all be told to stay in the house and isolate for the full period.

Where's the popcorn?

Seen another post saying they are training as normal. This is why I think the two game postponement is their punishment.

 

[TheEgg]

It doesnt say that anywhere though. If it is health reasons it would be 14 days, not just two games.

Aberdeen will be onto their 2nd week soon, celtic will haVe to do the same surely

 

[Weetoonblue]

I wonder what the Daily record will print tomorrow.

Clyde were deducted 4 points. We as a support need to pile the pressure on via collectively working together on social media to make sure they are punished.

 

[Coops2016]

There should be an investigation to discover when Celtic found out about him . If before Sunday then they should have the book thrown at them . This internal disciplinary procedure should have nothing to do with the governing body

 

[SuffolkGer]

Well in

The 2020/21 rules including covid are not online and the sfa link was broken last night online

So where are the rules
